    Speedy prep surface towel

    To me the marring kind of looks like a sheen over the clear with mainly the hills of the orange peel effected. I've had it happen with the fine grade mitt.

    Top 2 tire dressings for me right now!

    I been having great results with CG new look trim gel. I only use it for tires now. I put it on pretty thick, then a couple hours later dry buff the tires with a MF. I have BF total eclipse and like that too, but doesn't last as long as the CG.

    Used Nanoskin for the first time!

    Anyone noticed marring from the fine grade mitt? I noticed it on 2 different vehicles I did. I am not using glide. I'm using blackfire rinseless wash diluted to a rinse less in a bucket and blackfire rinseless quick detail spray for extra lube. I feel I'm using plenty of lube. After...

    Can vinyl decals on seadoo be polished?

    Hi guys, just wondering if the vinyl decals on a seadoo jet-ski can be polished out. They are faded, oxidized, and just bad. I was thinking about m205 and white pad. Also while I'm on the subject of vinyl, might as well cover vinyl door trim on cars. Can that be polished out the same way?

    Haha, my dad loves this stuff. Before they quit selling it he bought a case off ebay. The stuff always seemed pretty harsh to the user. Anyone know why they quit selling it? I wonder if the state of California found it caused cancer?

    Advice on these scratches

    Yeah, I know that. But the owner is paying for a 1 step, and a good deal on one. I already had to spend 3 hours removing unexpected overspray on the car. I mean horrible over spray, the kind that makes me wish I had a AutoScrub Pad.

    Advice on these scratches

    Hi guys. I am doing a 1-step correction on a 2009 Subaru WRX. I decided that a orange LC CCS 5.5 pad and pf2500 would be the best after a test spot. I am using a PC. The car has had the front bumper and hood repainted and had serious RIDS, most on the sides on the car. Forget swirls...
